Get up stand up, make a difference One shout is louder than a thousand whispers Each breath brings death closer What breath u got left, make the most of Till your life is over Sieze the time, life don't pause that record No rewind, one time to hear that section Hear opinions, but you've gotta rule in your kingdom Make choices that cause you to realise your vision You don't show it, but you can do it, blood i know it Don't flow it but we still both thug poets Raised by momma, nuff cut offs, gas and electrics Certain birthdays i ain't get shit, but it's cool mums Forget it, your love, the only reason that i ain't sleep Only reason at these pricks i ain't poppin' off clips Got family and friends that i'd lay down and die for Forces in my head, but in my heart i'm still for the life force
Get up woah stand up Stand up and make a change Get up oh stand up now Get up and make a change woah
However you hurtin', situation worsens by lack of earners System only workin' for certain persons A man 'll get caught tryna keep the rent up But a paedophile 'll spend less time bent up Next time you pick up blood, think of the consequences Someone's daughter or son cracked out on park benches Can't do it i know, can't afford to have a soul Cuz if you thinkin' you slippin' and not on ya toes Genocide turned suicide, it's not coincidental No chains, but it's worse when the shackles are mental, Scared to shine, don't share, breed like rabbits, Feed abuse of habits, and the situations get drastic Kick in more, sure that it's soon to be you We enterin, it's hard to be strong When the lifestyles so temptin', fat pockets Getting money, grabbin hoes away But if we don't change today our kids grow the same way
Get up oh stand up Stand up get up and fight Get up oh stand up now Don't just survive and live your life
However hard shit gets, try and maintain focus Cuz god always side with the most hate and the brokest I know there? a god cuz all the times i should of died Impossible circumstance, somehow i survived Plus theres the fact that the universe is the same Blood circulates like we earth in the same time Stars and cells born and i erase so you can't count Body earth water solids exactly the same amount Our everything, it's so insignificant Earth not even cell sized compared to total existence Eighteen years ago, i wasn't even visible Now i spit lyrical syllables through spiritual criminals Nothin' worse than potential that remained hidden Don't look back could of, would of, should of, to late i didn't While most of us struggle to strive for what we believe in Imagine the strength of those who died for what they believe in
Get up, oh stand up Stand up and make a change Get up oh stand up now Get up and make a change woah Get up oh stand up now Don't just survive Live your life, live your life
